HOW WE DELIVER THE DEPARTING USA TAX REVIEW
FIND THE FACTS
We start by asking you to fill in our Fact Finder. In the Fact Finder, you will specify your financial goals as well as your financial situation, which includes your assets and investments and how they are owned.
MEET WITH US
Once we have reviewed your Fact Finder, one of our tax advisors will meet with you to address your individual situation and explain possible tax strategies, opportunities and risks which may apply to you.
ADVICE SUMMARY
After your Tax Review meeting, our tax advisors will prepare a written summary, including the issues explained in your meeting and any necessary additional work or action points required.
